Sabri said that Teatr Wielki is a theater complex, opera company, and home of the Polish National Ballet, located on historic Theater Square in Warsaw, Poland. The Grand Theater in Warsaw is one of the largest theaters in Europe and in the world.

Speaking about the agenda of the Polish exhibition, Sabri said, "Marekzurawski, who is the secretary of an exhibition in Poland, expressed interest in holding the exhibition in Poland after 'A Dreamer from Iran' was held in Spain."

The theater was inaugurated on February 24, 1833 with a production of Rossini's 'The Barber of Seville'. After the building's bombing and near-complete destruction during World War II, it was rebuilt and reopened on November 19, 1965 following a closure of over twenty years.
